Since I just bought my car, I still have the stock summer tires on it. Im fine for now but I feel it still might snow before winter lets up. Does anyone have suggestions on where to buy snow tires?

Discount Tire is where I get all mine. I'm running high performance all-season tires and haven't got stuck yet.

I bought my Bridgestone LM-22s at Deerbrook Firestone in Deerfield. They gave me a really good deal, and they'll put on my summer tires in the spring for free. And the Bridgestone are great.

I have bought many tires from tirerack and their service is top notch. The last time I ordered tires they showed up the very next day at the garage that does my tires for me, which I also found through tirerack.

I don't think it's all the unusual. I thought most of us do.

oh, and adam ... THANKS for the cityscape background. i still had to redraw it, but that file made it much easier to get some of the basic shapes.

Here are some pics from the night after the big snow last week. After a Jetta hit me, I went to my dad's shop to have him check it out. The gold muscle car is my 442. Don't worry Race, I won't be dethroning you as EVOLV photographer anytime soon.
